Semi-batch, Non-preconditioned Data HRh CO

The simple metal carbonyl hydride species HRh(CO)4 has been sought by many researchers including Hieber [97], Chini [98], Vidal [99] and Whyman [100]. Vidal was able to obtain evidence for new MIR bands when Rh4(CO)i2 was subjected to ca. 1400 bar CO/H2 pressure, and Whyman was able to corroborate this finding at ca. 400 bar CO/H2 pressure. 

In Section 4.5.3, discussion was restricted to the application of BTEM to organome-tallic and homogeneous catalytic systems using MIR spectroscopy. However, it should also be noted that BTEM has been successfully applied to other problems in the chemical sciences using FTIR [104], RAMAN, FTIR and RAMAN [105, 106], as well as MS [107, 108]. A one-to-one comparison between BTEM and SIMPLISMA, OPA-ALS, has appeared [109].
